We are home from the hospital and loving these first few days with our son, Ryan! The delivery and hospital stay were amazing (details to come), and now we are settling into life at home with two kids!!
Malia LOVES Ryan…she is always trying to hug and kiss him, stroke his head, and telling him not to cry. There hasn’t been a trace of jealousy yet, which we’re so amazed and thankful for! We got Malia a present from baby Ryan, and she thought that was the greatest thing ever…thank you for that idea, Jill!
I’m not cooking a lot these days, but I saved up some recipes of things I made pre-delivery that were really yummy, including this healthy sour cream and onion dip!
You have to try this recipe from Eat, Live, Run. It’s made with greek yogurt and light sour cream, mixed together with lovely sweet caramelized onions. Perfect with these thick cut potato chips, or fresh veggies! I bet it would be amazing on a baked potato too…mmm, totally going to be doing that next time.
I couldn’t believe how creamy and delicious the flavor was, with just the reduced fat sour cream and my homemade greek yogurt (2%). This will definitely be making a reappearance around college football season 
Skinny Caramelized Onion Dip
From eat, live, run
1 cup reduced fat sour cream
1 cup 2% greek yogurt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 large onion, diced
1 T olive oil
Heat olive oil over medium-low heat and add diced onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions are very soft and caramelized, about 20-30 minutes. Cool completely. Mix together sour cream, greek yogurt, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Add in cooled onions and place in the refrigerator to let the flavors come together for at least 1 hour. Serve with ruffled chips or fresh veggies.
Any college football fans out there? I know it’s not fall yet, but what are your favorite tailgating foods?
My husband went to Notre Dame and I was raised with notre dame football, so we are big fans
I remember seeing this recipe on ELR, and thinking how amazing it would be. Looks tasty!
Glad that idea worked!
It was really good, and the flavors kept getting better the longer it sat.
Yes, it worked like a charm! We got her an easel, and she’s been sitting and painting a lot…it’s nice because Ryan and I can sit and watch her be creative
Beautiful, sweet photo of your children!
Thanks, Carol! It’s been such a joy watching Malia interact with Ryan, she really loves him
Hope you’re doing well!
Congrats!! Such sweet looking kids! I think having a little brother is going to make your little girl a much more responsible and caring kid, she’ll be learning how to take care of him along with you.
Thanks! Its great to see you back in the blog world! I hope you’re right, she wants to help me with diapers and watches me as I feed him
Your son is ADORABLE
Look at that head of hair!
Haha, thanks Kailey! That was one of the first things we noticed about him
Wow that looks amazing! I bet it’s much better than the kind you buy at the store! Your children are beautiful! Congrats again on the new arrival! What an exciting time!
It really is and it only gets better as it sits in the fridge!
We are really enjoying this time! I feel so lucky to have my husband and parents around to help out
Oh my gosh, he’s perfect! Congratulations a million times over
I can’t WAIT to hear the story!
What a beautiful baby! Congratulations
Thanks!! We’re feeling very lucky right now
I LOVE the photo of both of your little ones together
Aw, thanks Michelle…Malia really loves her little brother, it’s very sweet! We were so worried she was going to be jealous, but she really has just embraced him as part of our family!
I can’t wait to try this recipe–anything with caramelized onions sounds good to me! Congratulations on your newest addition! What a sweet picture of the both of them!
Thanks! We are loving having two, and I’m starting to get the hang of juggling both of them
Yes, caramelized onions are the best! This dip tasted really rich, even though it was just greek yogurt and low fat sour cream…hope you like it!
Goodness, that looks delicious! I love onion dip, can’t wait to try it out! Thanks for sharing.
